Air Pollution: Its Impact on Health and Possible Solutions
Apr 25, 2018
Gresham College
Lung disease, heart disease, stroke, dementia and learning difficulties have been associated with different forms of air pollution including gasses and particulate matter. It is a difficult policy area because there is an economic and social cost to tackling it, so there is a trade-off.

This lecture will consider the evidence for different forms of air pollution causing diseases, and outline some of the potential solutions.

The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/air-pollution-its-impact-on-health-and-possible-solutions
